Charred Corn & Black Bean Quesadilla
with a fresh salsa & jalapeños
A fresh sweet corn, piquante peppers, chive and lime juice salsa is spooned over quesadilla triangles. Inside these toasted wraps await a rich black bean, tomato and onion ragù, of course! Spiced with NOMU Mexican Spice Blend, made extra yummy with melted cheese, and cooled down with crème fraîche.

READY THE RAGÙ
Place a pot over medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, sauté the Onion and ½ the corn until the onion is soft and the corn is starting to char, 4-5 minutes. Add the NOMU spice blend, and cook until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Stir through the cooked chopped Tomato and 100ml [200ml]|#7DA0D7 of water. Simmer until reduced and thickened, 10-12 minutes (stirring occasionally).
BEAN THERE, ADDED THAT
When the ragù has 2-3 minutes remaining, stir through the black beans until heated through. Remove from the heat, add a sweetener (to taste), and seasoning.
SALSA
In a bowl, combine the remaining Corn, the piquante peppers, ½ the chives, the lime juice, and seasoning. In a separate bowl, combine the remaining chives, the crème fraîche, and seasoning.
TASTY TORTILLAS
Place one tortilla in a clean pan over medium heat. Top with the Corn & bean mixture, the jalapeños (to taste), and the cheese. Sandwich the loaded tortilla with the remaining tortilla. Heat until golden, 1-2 minutes. [Repeat|#7DA0D7 the|#7DA0D7 process|#7DA0D7 with|#7DA0D7 the|#7DA0D7 remaining|#7DA0D7 tortillas.]|#7DA0D7
FLIP & FRY
Cover the pan with a chopping board or a plate. Flip the pan quickly, so the quesadilla flips onto the board or plate. Slide the quesadilla back into the pan, so the untoasted side is on the base of the pan. Toast until the cheese is melted, 1-2 minutes. Remove from the pan and cut into 4 triangles. [Repeat|#7DA0D7 with|#7DA0D7 the|#7DA0D7 remaining|#7DA0D7 tortillas.]|#7DA0D7
